Success is man's god.
The evils of mortals are manifold; nowhere is trouble of the same wing seen.
Of all the gods only death does not desire gifts.
Human prosperity never rests but always craves more, till blown up with pride it totters and falls. From the opulent mansions pointed at by all passers-by none warns it away, none cries, 'Let no more riches enter!'.
He who goes unenvied shall not be admired.
But let the good prevail.
